Purple sari with a bit of silver kaam around the pallu and border.

Please suggest eye shades and lip color. Very confused. Thanks.

niks if you are not comfortable with eyeshadow…go for a taupe cream eyeshadow…smudged liner..highlighted brow, and mascara…

Re: Help with purple sari

Thanks chanda, I was just afraid of purple standing out. CE's pic looks good. Shall try that effect. I also like Chanda's. Will try both and see what looks better on my skin tone.

Nikki a deep plum would look very pretty..if u're not comfy with purple..try silver and black.

Re: Help with purple sari

omg gorgeous!

ANother question. I used to wear eyeliner on the insides of my eye (bottom) as well but all of a sudden, a few years ago, I quit when I started getting water in my eyes when I did that. I didn't change any brand, don't know why that happened. So I only wear it at the top of eyelids now. Any suggestions on how I can control that?

Thank you lady for the link! Some good stuff.

chanda_kh · May 11, 2009, 10:42pm

instead of liner...smudge the bottom with dark shadow or liner...it gives a more softer, prettier shape to the eye...as opposed to the sharp line..

chanda_kh · May 11, 2009, 10:43pm

you re welcome :)

Gina · May 11, 2009, 10:52pm

hugs chanda.. Nikki i'd use a eye pencil in a dark brown..and smudge it! Or even taupe

Re: Help with purple sari

do smokey eyes with lots of silver in it. don't make it too dark/black. if it's a dark saree then it should stand out on its own especially with silver kaam. if the makeup is all matchy matchy or dark, it might look a bit odd.
